The Paul Green School of Rock is a performance-based program -- The private lessons cover musical theory and basic techniques, the core of the program is preparation for live performance. The school is in operation year-round, and there are three show seasons every year (fall, spring and summer), at the end of the show season, each student in the school participates in shows at major live music venues in the area.
Look also for our Summer Boot Camp offerings for 2009. Coming March of 2009
We will also be forming a house band that will often be invited to perform at festivals and events in the area as well as nationally. These opportunities are not mandatory, but when possible, we will try to include as much of our student body as we can.
A major component of the Paul Green School is that there is no substitute for actually doing something. Preparing for and playing ambitious live shows is the cornerstone of the teaching method we use to prepare young musicians for what the music business is actually like, as well as experiencing the sensation of playing music as a band, for large
groups of appreciative people.
